burningbusch ( or anyone) - I put your zip file on my flash drive and am trying to load it onto my Kronos and it wants to put the files into 'song' in the Sequencer instead of User GG, where I want to put it - what am I missing?
Thanks for sharing this with the forum - I can't wait to try them out !!

Unzip the file on your computer. Copy the .PCG file to the flash drive and load it into the Kronos (or copy it to the SSD and load it). Open the .PDF on your computer READ it to better understand how to use the programs.

Take On Me, haha. Or A-Ha, I should say :)
That song is so bad it's good. Definitely some signature synths.

I think some of Mike Lindups Level 42 (mainly Prophet V) sounds would fit well into that picture.

One or two George Duke leads wouldn't be bad as well. But perhaps hard to accomplish on the Kronos.
Kronos 73 - Moog Voyager RME - Moog LP TE - Behringer Model D - Prophet 6 - Roland Jupiter Xm - Rhodes Stage 73 Mk I - Elektron Analog Rytm MkII - Roland TR-6s - Cubase 12 Pro + Groove Agent 5

Genesis: Tonight, tonight.
Mister Mister: Kyrie
Bad English: When I see you smile.
Europe: The beginnig of Final Countdown.
Jeeze, I'm sure I'll come up with more, but I can barely keep my eyes open right now. Would love to have a really authentic Derek Sherinian Monster lead. I've tried a few various third party patches, but they don't cut it.
Can't thank you enough BB.
